Muller Martini says its live demonstrations of Finishing 4.0 reveal unlimited opportunities for new market growth.
The company recently showcased its Finishing 4.0 digital networking technology, including an end-to-end touchless workflow, at this year’s Graph Expo event. Muller Martini says it showed an array of flexible and highly efficient finishing solutions that can help them successfully migrate to digital and hybrid platforms while concurrently satisfying customer demands for conventionally produced products.
The live equipment demonstrations showed finishing for digital, offset and hybrid-printed products and demonstrated the new Connex.Info 4.0 tracking and monitoring module, providing connectivity for both digital and conventional print production. The company says its automated print finishing systems can produce both long-and ultra-short runs, with variable trim sizes and content.
Solutions include the Vareo perfect binder that processes offset and digitally produced signatures and has a new PUR gluing system. Also, the Presto II Digital saddle stitcher, which can merge web and conventional signatures.
Werner Naegeli, president and chief executive for Muller Martini in North America, says, “This is truly an exciting time for the industry. Our customers need efficient workflow solutions that can connect the finishing of all types of products with all types of print engines. Muller Martini’s highly versatile Connex data and process management system synchronizes with every major digital print engine in today’s market. Working with our customers, we welcome the future with digital solutions in bookbinding, saddle stitching and trimming which will continue to exemplify the forefront of finishing.”
